Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.
Thriveworks psychologists in Watertown, MA provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.
Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Watertown is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.
Life is a series of ups and downs. One moment we are jumping up and down in celebration and the next we are struggling to cope with a life-threatening diagnosis. Fortunately, there are mental health professionals who dedicate their lives to helping people overcome major life changes and concerns. At Thriveworks Counseling in Watertown, MA, we have psychologists who are trained in various different fields and can provide their clients with the tools they need to achieve happiness and success. If there is a mental health challenge or obstacle standing in your way of living the life you want, consider reaching out. Just call our office to get started.
As we just mentioned, psychologists are qualified and trained in a multitude of mental health areas. They are equipped with the skillsets to help identify, diagnose, and treat the concerns you have. If you decide to work with a psychologist, they will first get to know you, including your obstacles and goals that are unique to you. Then they will take this information to come up with a customized treatment plan that will focus on your specific needs. For example, if you are struggling to cope with the loss of a loved one, they will ask you about your specific feelings and how long you have been struggling. This will allow them to verify what stage in the grieving process you are in and how they will help you moving forward.
Coping with a loss, whether a loved one, job, or time period, is just one of the ways in which a psychologist at Thriveworks Counseling in Watertown, MA can help you. We can help you through many different challenges, including:
There’s no need to cope with the stressors of life on your own. They are hard enough as it is.
